On the Market: Another Yakima Avenue Favorite (17. November 2005, 07:31 by Derek Young) ~
The beautiful historic home of Judge Grosscup (circa 1903) at 901 North Yakima has hit the market at a few bucks under $1.2 million. This is a gorgeous four square home with a healthy amount of stone on the exterior. The first time I noticed this home it wasn’t because of the architecture; it was because of the car out front. I remember a relatively rare BMW 850 sitting on the street and collecting leaves. Very infrequently we’d notice an older gentlemen taking the car out. Pre-remodel, back when the BMW was out front, I remember a propensity for security bars over dark curtain drawn windows. Then one day we noticed the car was gone and th curtains were opened. Something had changed. As the remodel got going the bars disappeared, the windows seemed to open up, and us passers-by got a glimpse into the gorgeous interior. From what I can tell, the home has been beautifully remodeled over the last few years by the current owners. There isn’t much of a front yard, but the view out the back makes it worth every penny… or at least a lot of pennies.
